Andrea is best known as the original Annie (both on Broadway and in London), a performance which earned her a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical, in addition to a Theatre World and Outer Critics Circle Award. She recently starred as "Mama Rose" in Gypsy for the Bay Area Houston Ballet & Theatre. She just returned from Japan where she reprised the role of "Sally Bowles" in Cabaret.
